Chapter 85 Reality and Poetry and Distance

Whether there is real skill, Jin Shang himself doesn’t count. Those who appreciate it think it’s good.

Before this, Jin Shang practiced the song "The Original Dream" countless times and had fantasized about countless scenes of shocking success.

Unfortunately, before that day, we were about to graduate and the "Little Maza Band" was disbanded.

It is definitely fake if you don’t regret it, but it is not very strong. At best, it is equivalent to buying a very favorite figure. Before you get tired of playing, you feel like your head is twisted off by a naughty child from a relative’s family.

All the imagined opportunities to "show the sage in front of people" are definitely not included in TV programs, performing guitar singing to audiences across the country.

Before coming, I was indeed a little worried that I would not perform well, but when I held the guitar in my arms, Jin Shang found that he was so calm inside.

It's like I should be the focus of the crowd and shines brightly.

"So, I am not as calm as I am about the so-called "fair reputation"!"

Some people are born to be big scenes. The more they are in public, the more they can perform better when they are under the pressure.

When his fingers plucked the strings, Jin Shang felt unprecedentedly good. It seemed that what he could not do in the past could be easily performed today.

Even so, when he actually played and sang, Jin Shang still restrained his desire to live a life, and expressed the strong warmth and belief of "The Original Dream" with a relatively peaceful attitude and a slightly soothing voice, expressing his heartfelt chant. The sincere singing from the heart can also show the high-spirited and self-improvement voice to the audience.

However, the guitar in Jin Shang's hand was obviously different, and it was much more exciting than usual. The stormy sense of power was so strong, especially Wu Chan and Lu Liao who listened close to each other, which was deeply touched.

If the song is like a storm, singing is like a small boat, dancing with the waves, fighting the sea and sky at the storm with ease.

After nearly three minutes of singing, the studio was rarely quiet. It was not until the audience's guest seats heard the host Wu Chan came to his senses.

"It feels very unique. It is obviously the same song as Dai Yiqin sang, but it gives people a very different impression. Of course, they are both wonderful, and they are worthy of being the lyricist and songwriter, and they have their own understanding of this song."

Even, it feels different from what I tried to sing yesterday, as if the expression of emotions is even stronger.

After savoring for a moment, Lu Liao asked strangely:

"Playing and singing seem a bit different, but if you think about it carefully, it seems like this is what it should be. The guitar sound is very strong and has a strong rock flavor, but the singing style suppresses it. The somewhat soothing lyrics in the original sound are particularly suitable..."

"Today I am doing my best. I was not so strong when I formed a band before. I practiced diligently for many years, and my progress was limited. Once I realized it, I felt like I was ascending to the spot..."

"Have you learned it?"

Jin Shangwei nodded:

"I used to hear people say that rock is a spirit, a resistance, a war, and a contest with myself. I always sneer. It's just a relatively trendy style of music. Is it necessary to be so giggled? Is it necessary to wear guitar, bass drum set, wear strange costumes, and pretend to yell at the rhythm for a few words? "

"That was a half-bucket house. The former was too extreme and the latter was too superficial. Unfortunately, the so-called rock circles are mostly such fools. They think that playing rock is superior. They look down on this and look down on it..."

"You are just an amateur musician who writes novels, and you actually understand..."

"Who doesn't know if you have been in contact with this circle?"

"That's right, I'm just a half-baked guy!"

Jin Shang laughed at himself for a few words and then explained,

"Now, I think that writing poems and lyrics are similar to rock. The former is intended on paper, while the latter is in the song. For example, after deducting the details, all fall into the word "sorrow". The song "The Original Dream" is actually saying "Don't admit defeat" over and over again..."

After a pause, Jin Shang took on the previous topic with a little ease.

"Whether it is the spirit of rock or the form of rock expression, it is very perfunctory; as for the explanation that rock is rebellious, I agreed with it before, but now I think it is simply nonsense. But many people believe in this stigmatization statement..."

"You believed it before?"

"Yes! I have a little different view now..."

"Tell me?"

Jin Shang put down the guitar in his arms, moved his stiff neck and wrists for a while, and then slowly explained:

"Rock is not rock or roll, but it is not that advanced. It is not essentially different from Shaanxi Xintianyou, Hakka folk songs, Kunqu opera, etc., as well as ancient Yuefu poems, lyrics and verses. It is just because the culture and popularity of this era chose rock and roll, which is deeply loved by young people. Of course, rock and roll are all-encompassing, eclectic and keeping pace with the times, and are more in line with the preferences of pioneer young people who advocate freedom. This kind of simple description is wrong, but to be precise, it should be called resistance, which is an uplifting and uplifting inspiration..."

Wu Chan, who has limited knowledge of this, has really hard to interrupt, so she can only ask a few small questions from time to time.

"I heard that there are also a lot of noise inside the rock youth..."

"It's normal, classical, jazz looks down on heavy metal, heavy metal looks down on punk and avant-garde, punk and avant-garde look down on visual department, and no one looks down on visual department, and they want to get rid of the others from 'rock' and play their own. So, look..."

Jin Shang spread his hands,

"It's actually meaningless to discuss this thing. The people just want to listen to their favorite songs and don't care about rock, pop or folk songs at all. It's just that culture blends to this point, making everyone more interested in rock that can stimulate hearing and provoke emotions..."

"Indeed, now I am young, I like to vent my catharsis more directly..."

"I even think that the so-called rock may not exist. It's just a large group of musical youths with similar emotional expression needs gathered under the big banner of 'rock', gathering together to keep warm and make waves..."

He was too devoted and subjective, and Jin Shang didn't think it was very good, so he stopped exploring the topic.

"The so-called "who knows" is not difficult, but the difficult ones do not. In the past, I knew how to use my hands and feet, but my mind didn't keep up. In the words of a rock young man, I just lacked spiritual attributes. Now, I have a little understanding of how to express my emotions by playing and singing..."

"I'm a little surprised. You are obviously a creator, are you so vague before?"

Wu Chan asked curiously,

"For example, what are you 'worry'? You have encountered difficulties again, so you have the idea of ​​'don't admit defeat'. And you have also made "Caisangzi" and "The Original Dream"?"

Jin Shang replied with a smile:

"The subconscious mind may have a lot of insights, so it is expressed in the works, but the superficial consciousness may not be so keen. People have different opinions and eight out of ten, lie to others and themselves. Why is the vitality of rock music such as so tenacious? Perhaps creators and singers can use it to show their emotions. In modern society where the pace is getting faster and faster, people are becoming more and more impatient, and don't want to spend time to experience too implicit thoughts, and just want to resonate with the consistent emotions..."

"True feelings?"

"right!"

At this point, Jin Shang had a lot of enlightenment, whether it was music or the Internet, some things were the same in essence.

In the Internet era, providing products that meet demand is only the basis. More importantly, providing channels for venting emotions in increasingly fragmented information acquisition and social interaction is to truly grasp the core competitiveness of young netizens.

"With the screen, you can't meet each other, but it is the most true form of people's hearts. A certain blog has become an emotional trash can for rumors, fights and scandals, and has become a pretentious pseudo-successful person. Literary and artistic youths are joking each other for business and pulling big dye vats for showing off. So-called "reason-based guests" shuttle between major social networking sites, not to find like-minded partners, nor to reason with others, distinguish the authenticity, but to find "same kind" and vent their emotions. It is essentially the same as the so-called "rock lovers" who encircle and entertain themselves. No wonder there is the saying "information cocoon". Big data screening is just a driving force, and our own cognitive boundaries are the real cage. Every move on the Internet is spit out one by one and wrapping up their own silk...

My mind was constantly changing, and now it was not the time to think about it. Jin Shang forced himself to suppress the thoughts that had come to his mind, and then continued to answer:

"Youth is sad, middle-aged and old age is sad, but it is actually no different. I worry about the decline in exam results, worry about the workplace being unsatisfactory, and worry about the children and grandchildren in the distance. The mood is the same. As I grow from small to large, my worries will definitely increase. For example, I am starting a business now, with hundreds of employees, plus temporary workers and interns. This is no longer the stage for me to realize my dreams alone. Behind it is the food, food, clothing, housing and transportation of more than 100 families. The livelihoods of so many people are on their shoulders, and the campus band is not at the same level as my academic performance..."

"really……"

Wu Chan agreed with great understanding,

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and the burden on your shoulders is heavier..."

"In the past, I could say 'Life is not just about the fertility in front of me, but also about poetry and the distance'. It is not difficult to take a trip that I just want to go. Starting a business is the only way to practice my ideals, but I still underestimated the impact of this action. Seven things to get up in the morning, namely, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. This is the daily life of most families. It would be fine if I never care about it, but it won't work now..."

"A person's dream becomes the career of many people, and the situation changes."

"The piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and flowers were always there, but now everything has changed. The firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. The 'poetry and the distance' are still waiting for me, and the 'meeting in front of me' cannot be ignored."

"You've grown up!"

Wu Chan, who has already understood Jin Shang's style of being polite from time to time, did not ask for more details. It has been a long time since time passed. The weekend special edition of "Oriental Night Talk" cannot be too long. It will be unsuccessful and cannot be broadcast even after recording.

"Then...is there anything that specifically hits you?"

"If you want to say something special, it is the name 'genius', which is no longer popular. When I was a student, whether it was excellent in academic performance, handsome in basketball, good football, cool guitar, cool enough, it was enough to become the focus of everyone's attention. After entering society, everything changed, and the social atmosphere began to pursue success blindly, and basically did not pay attention to the lack of realization potential and intelligence. Only the consequence theory is nothing but a little bit eager for quick success. What makes me most uncomfortable is that the definition of success is limited to money, fame and power..."

“The criteria for judgment have changed.”

Wu Chan summed up and wanted to explain a few words, but Jin Shang didn't stop and continued:

"I'm telling me from all directions that 'Only I endure hardships can I be the best of others', and it's a success to strive to be the best of others'. This kind of value seems to be fine at first glance, but as the only measure, it's really suffocating. The education I have received tells me that people are born equal, and no one is born noble, but society urges me to work hard to be the best of others', which is really funny..."

The students and people in the society have completely different positions. They have experienced it once in their previous life, and have experienced it again in this life, and are also deeply moved.

"Reality and ideals are a bit broken, and the world is not perfect, so everyone needs to work together..."

Wu Chan tactfully advised that Jin Shang naturally wouldn't be really cynical and said nothing,

"I admit that there are uneven differences between people, but this gap is too uncomfortable. I don't know when I will forget my original intention and become a commoner among all living beings. Now, I just want to do something within my ability while my blood is not cold and my heart is still there. Now I am still young and talk nonsense, but I am just a frivolous and rude statement that can be forgiven. Let's talk about the future, let's do it, let's see, and cherish it."

"That's why...there are "Men Should Be Self-Enhancing" and "The Original Dream"? The young people today are really scary. At that time, we were not so crazy. We could write songs, write lyrics, recite poems and write poems, and dare to start a business for our ideals..."

After sighing, Wu Chan, who had no hope of Jin Shang's answer, focused on the audience.

"After saying so much, I believe everyone has already understood the two young talents. When you finally speak freely, you can ask questions to the two guests as much as possible..."

Soon, the camera turned and pointed at the audience stands on the other side. Most of them were tool people who made up the numbers, and a few were real experts invited. Before recording, Jin Shang was specifically reminded to answer carefully and to be respectful.
